Gervonta Davis pleaded guilty Thursday to four counts stemming from a hit-and-run crash in November 2020 that left four people injured, including a pregnant woman. Davis' sentencing is May 5.
On Nov. 5, 2020, around 2 a.m., Davis left a downtown club in Baltimore and drove a Lamborghini under a police escort, according to the prosecution. He then veered from the caravan and eventually ran a red light and struck the passenger side of a 2004 Toyota Solara. Davis was accused of fleeing the scene of an accident that involved four people, including pregnant woman Jyair Smith.
According to the prosecution, Davis made eye contact with Smith but never came over to help. Smith, who declined comment after Davis' guilty plea, is scheduled to speak before Davis' sentencing. It seemed like Davis' case was reaching a conclusion at the end of last year, but a Baltimore Circuit Court judge declined to approve a plea deal that would have allowed him to avoid jail time and instead spend 60 days under house arrest.in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in connection with a Dec. 27 misdemeanor domestic violence charge of battery causing bodily harm.
Davis is closing in on a deal for a 136-pound catchweight superfight against Ryan Garcia that is being planned for April 15 in Las Vegas.
